    I was just three and not old enough to understand or remember racism in 1973. However, I recall it being an issue eight years later when I moved from junior to senior school!

    There are hundreds and thousands of people in Britain who do not want to be here, but they have no choice. Slavery and colonialism were responsible for the destruction of their country economy, industries, ripping of their minerals including the dead of millions which has for hundreds of years led to continuous discrimination and hardship. Until you are prepared to equal the playing field of wealth distribution, I am afraid that migration will continue. Western population needs education and an historical prospective of how the UK came to be what it is today.

      Racism is far worse all over the UK it's not hidden anymore the British people sit in denial and don't want to address how they feel ,go outside of London and see the real racism in other UK cities like Birmingham, Manchester Liverpool and towns and see racism and segregation today .

    This is VERY Interesting for myself, an Black Man from the United States to see the issues that Black Men and Women faced in Great Britain during my High School years of the late 1970's. I also have learned that Great Britian was going through a Crippling Economic time and thus Jobs were scarce furthering excaberating the situation.

In 2017 it was harder for non whites to get into high ranking (managerial) positions. Harder in the sense that it took longer because most often higher ranking jobs were given to whites first.

    Wow, 23:38 the presenter appears to be subtly trying to stir resentment/violence and she wants them to hurry up, what a commie cow, the poor girl must've left this depressed knowing they are just trying to use her to stir trouble instead.
